Sure, you can do that. Nice to see that you are using Diolan DLN-2 adapter. thanks, Daniel. On Mon, Apr 2, 2018 at 8:06 PM, Gaston Gonzalez <gascoar@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi,
I'm testing an AD7746 eval board using a Diolan DLN-2 adapter. I wrote some basic notes about the installation an instanciation process for my own use. But then I thought it could be useful for someone else. So maybe I could put this in the kernel newbies page under the IIO section?
If you think is worth it, I would be glad to add it to the wiki page.
Best regards,
Gaston
Notes:
The setup =========
AD7746-EVAL BOARD --> Diolan DLN-2 Adapter --> Thinkpad T430
The connection between the AD7746 eval board and adapter is as detailed in [2] I2C Interface Configuration Options, External connection (pag 4).
The connection between Diolan DLN-2 and the T430 is USB straighforward.
Drivers =======
Both in mainline kernel:
- Diolan DLN-2 driver: I2C_DLN2 (prompt Diolan DLN-2 USB I2C adapter) Loc: drivers/i2c/busses/ - AD7746: AD7746 Loc: drivers/staging/iio/cdc/
Bus of interest ===============
$ sudo i2cdetect -l
We get something like:
... i2c-10 i2c dln2-i2c-1-1.2:1.0-0 I2C adapter ...
So our bus is the number 10.
Getting the address ===================
$ sudo i2cdetect -y -r 10
We get something like:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f 00: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 10: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 20: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 40: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 48 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 50: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
3. Device instantiation:
# echo add7746 0x48 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-10/new_device
We must see something like:
$ cd /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-10/10-0048/ $ ls driver iio:device0 modalias name power subsystem uevent
$ cd iio:device0 $ ls dev in_capacitance-capacitance_calibbias in_capacitance0_calibbias_calibration in_capacitance-capacitance_sampling_frequency in_capacitance0_calibscale in_capacitance-capacitance_scale in_capacitance0_calibscale_calibration in_capacitance_sampling_frequency in_capacitance0-capacitance2_calibscale in_capacitance_sampling_frequency_available in_capacitance0-capacitance2_offset in_capacitance_scale in_capacitance0-capacitance2_raw in_temp0_input in_capacitance0_offset in_temp1_input in_capacitance0_raw in_voltage0_calibscale_calibration in_capacitance1_calibbias_calibration in_voltage0_raw in_capacitance1_calibscale in_voltage1_supply_raw in_capacitance1_calibscale_calibration in_voltage_sampling_frequency in_capacitance1-capacitance3_calibscale in_voltage_sampling_frequency_available in_capacitance1-capacitance3_offset in_voltage_scale in_capacitance1-capacitance3_raw name in_capacitance1_offset power in_capacitance1_raw subsystem in_capacitance_calibbias uevent

4. Capacitance
According to [2], the capacitive length sensor is connected to CIN2+ and CIN2-. In the driver, the values are mapped to capacitance0.
Raw values vs sensor length:
Note: (+) values means the sensor was moved to the left, (-) values means the sensor was moved to the right. I.e. +1 cm means the rule was moved 1 to the left, while -1 means the rule was moved 1 cm to the right.
Note2: note the raw value for -10 is 8224733, while +10 is -8224726, the difference is because when the rule is moved 10 cm to the left, the is still 2 o 3 cm of dielectric between the plates. The design is obviously thought to move the rule to the right.
Length (cm) | Raw Value Cap0 ------------------------------ -10 -8224733 -9 -8224730 -8 -8224728 -7 -8224725 -6 -8224724 -5 -8224722 -4 -8224720 -3 -8224718 -2 -8224716 -1 -8224714 +0 -8224711 +1 -8224711 +2 -8224711 +3 -8224711 +4 -8224713 +5 -8224715 +6 -8224717 +7 -8224719 +8 -8224721 +9 -8224723 +10 -8224726
